Please don’t bother replying to this post of mine! I’ve just gone out to try one last time and now it’s working!! I have no idea why but it is! Why do these things wait until I’m really really annoyed before resolving themselves 🙄🤪

Hi I’ve just bought an 18 month old Fabia and for the first month I had no issues with wireless Apple Carplay but got in car this morning and now my iPhone 13 won’t connect. This is my 4th Fabia so I know there are occasional glitches and I’ve always managed to sort it out but this is the first car I’ve had with wireless Apple CarPlay. I can connect by standard media connection with Bluetooth but Carplay just says can’t connect - it won’t even make a wired connection! I’ve tried everything - Switched off phone and left for 4 hours Switched off car and left for 4 hours Done the ‘forget this car’ Removed other Bluetooth devices Switched Bluetooth and Wi-Fi off Even reset the Infotainment system back to factory settings Repaired Bluetooth connection Aaaggh! I don’t want to have to go back to the dealer. They told me all the software was upto date. I’ve gone onto Skoda website and put VIN No in to try to see what firmware I should have but not got very far. The car still has a Manufacturer Warranty so I’m wondering if a Skoda dealer will do it under warranty

Interesting. Mine is going in on the 14th March under warranty. Whether they will sort it out remains to be seen 😕

Thanks - but I think my phone is ok as it worked perfectly in my previous car which had the same set up 🙂

Thanks I’ll speak to the dealer 😀

Hi I’ve recently traded in a 66 plate Fabia and bought a 69 plate. Loved using CarPlay in my previous model but having issues in my new car. I think it’s the USB port as music plays ok at first then a drop out and comes back crackling. I’ve tried a different USB cable but still the same issue. There doesn’t appear to be a problem with the radio. My car is still under warranty and i am going to contact a local Skoda garage but I’m wondering if they could put it down to wear and tear? Has anyone else had similar problems? thanks

Hi I’m on my 3rd used Fabia and decided to check out the forum
